30. The Color Wheel • The color wheel is the most commonly used tool for understanding color relationships in design. • The middle ring of the color wheel consists of three types of colors: • primary colors • secondary colors • intermediate colors Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

31. The Color Wheel • The middle ring shows normal color values, while tints appear on the inside circle and shades appear outside. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

32. Primary Colors • The three primary colorsare: • yellow • blue • red • Mixing, lightening, and darkening the primary colors can make all other colors. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

33. Primary Colors • The primary colors are equally spaced around the color wheel. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

34. Secondary Colors • The three secondary colors are: • orange • violet • green • Mixing equal amounts of two primary colors makes these colors. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

35. Secondary Colors • Each secondary color is positioned between the two primary colors used to make it. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

36. Intermediate Colors • The six intermediate colors are: • yellow-green • blue-green • blue-violet • red-violet • red-orange • yellow-orange (Continued) Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

37. Intermediate Colors • Intermediate colors are made by mixing one primary and one secondary color. • The primary color is always listed first. • Intermediate colors are also called tertiary colors. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

39. Color Characteristics • Each color has three characteristics: • Hue is the name of a color. • Value is the lightness or darkness of a hue. • Intensity is the brightness or dullness of a hue. • Red, green, and blue-violet are examples of hues. (Continued) Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

(Continued) Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

41. Value Scale • The value of a color can be changed by adding different amounts of black or white. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

42. Color Characteristics • The value of a hue can be made lighter by adding white. • This produces a tint. • Example: Pink is a tint of red, made by adding white to red. • Tints are shown in the inner ring of the color wheel. (Continued) Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

43. Color Characteristics • A hue can be made darker by adding black. • This produces a shade. • Example: Maroon is a shade of red, made by adding black to red. • Shades are shown in the outer ring of the color wheel. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.

44. Color Characteristics • The complement of a hue is the color directly opposite it on a standard color wheel. • Example: Green is the complement of red. • A hue can be made duller or less intense by adding some of its complement. Permission granted to produce for educational use only.
